What's the deal with Kappa Turkey been a separate company , are there multiple Kappas in different countries ?

There are different territories all over. Most of Europe use the French factory. The factory I own a small part of in Pakistan makes for Kappa Scandinavia and Kappa Australia.

It's very heavily regulated. The new Kappa UK licensee has approached our factory to make for them, not sure if they will. However whoever has made those abominations for City don't have a clue what they're doing. It's basic stuff.
Instead of buying the fabric white, making 16 or so different size templates and then printing and cutting them all separately they've tried mass dying fabric and then just cutting back on themselves to make each size. They means you lose control of certain designs, including stripes!!!!

Speaking of Kappa Australia by the way, how nice are these badges the factory did for Western? I've been hammering one through my washing machine trying to get it off. They're really good. It's about half inch thick!

I don't know if this has been discussed earlier about the sizes by its my birthday next week (64) my son has bought me the new home shirt, he got me a 4 XL the largest they do and ffs it's tight. In the last month I've lost weight about 19lbs. I've never had a problem with a 3XL fitting before so I reckon they will lose sales because anyone with a bit of a belly won't be able to for in a shirt. Very poor that this wasn't checked out. I've heard that loads have taken the shirts back because of this.

I know the answer is lose weight which I'm trying to do. Anyway I'll have to wear one of my old shirts this afternoon.

Enjoy the coming season guys and gals UTT

Do you still have the tags? If so, you could check if the shirt was the skin-fit version or the regular-fit one (the players wear the skin-fit).

A 4XL skin-fit would probably be tighter around the gut than a 3XL regular.

Like it it's the best I've seen for a bit .
Are they not quality enough I forgot to pop into the shop whilst in town this morning
 
I like the away shirt, it’s better than the home one, if only it didn’t have that awful Kappa logo on it, I might be interested.
